You do realize that the Sent-date (i.e. the Date header) is set by the sender and can be anything, right? I.e. it's not reliable as an indicator of the message age. Recieved-Date is set by your local server and is much more likely to be correct. > Incoming mail was filtered and labeled before, of course. > So, from time to time I go to this vfolder and expunge all mails with > Ctrl-E.

Does this work on IMAP folders? I don't see how it can. The IMAP spec defines Expunge as an operation on physical folders, i.e. there's no way to expunge some messages in a physical folder and not others. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
